  • Objective : The purpose of this research was to provide basic data for developing the collaborating care of Korean traditional medicine and western medicines by analyzing the perceptions of residents visiting local health centers on the collaborating care. Method : To this end, a self-administrated questionnaire was surveyed to 417 participants from March 10 to March 19, 2005. The questionnaires were regarding medical preferences, effectiveness, co-operative treatment types, and the demographic characteristics of the study population. The main statistical methods employed for analysis were frequency chi-square test analysis, using SPSS system 12.0 software for Windows. Result : First, the perceptions of collaborating care, such as preference and effectiveness, were better for residents who had experienced Korean traditional medicine(p < 0.05). Second, the most favorable collaborating care type was the neuromuscular disease and rehabilitation, and in particular, the preference of the patient who had experienced Korean traditional medicine was much higher than those who had not experienced it(p < 0.05). Third, as for recognizing the future of collaborating care, respondents insisted that collaboration care has to be conducted under evidence-based research. The reasons why collaborating care has not been active were reported as "difference in solving disease problems between oriental medicine and western medicine." The most important role of the Korean traditional medicines in the public sector was to provide specialized service for the elderly and low income households. Conclusion : Most respondents expected the positive effects of the collaborating care and wanted it to develop, particularly for neuromuscular diseases. As for the health promotion program in health centers, it was more popular than the home visiting program for the elderly and preventive rehabilitation for stroke. Now we must plan to balance between the need of the community and the medical provider on collaborating care.

  • 본 연구는 공공임대주택과 민간임대주택의 주거복지 성과에 차이가 있는지를 확인하고자 하였다. 2016년 주거실태조사를 활용하여 주거의 구조적 물리적 적절성, 주거비의 저렴적절성, 주거의 안정성으로 정의한 주거복지에 있어 공공임대주택과 민간임대주택이 차이가 있는지, 이러한 차이가 가구의 인구사회경제적 특성을 통제한 상태에서도 유지되는지를 검토하였다. 분석결과 공공임대주택 중 일부는 여전히 최저주거기준미달, 주거비과부담의 문제를 겪고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 공공임대주택과 민간임대주택을 비교하면 공공임대주택은 주거복지에 있어 통계적으로 유의미한 성과가 있었으며, 이는 인구사회경제적 특성을 통제하면 더욱 일관되게 나타났다. 민간임대주택은 최저주거기준미달, 주거비과부담, 주거안정성에 있어 열악한 상황에 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 공공임대주택정책의 개선방안과 민간임대주택에 대한 적절한 규제의 필요성의 근거를 도출할 수 있었다.

  • 본 논문은 미국 포용주택 제도를 중심으로 사회적 혼합 달성가능성을 탐색하는 것을 주 목적으로 한다. 계획고권을 활용한 포용주택 제도의 발생 배경과 운영방식, 사회적 혼합 달성의 효과 및 한계를 검토하여 우리나라 주거정책에 대한 시사점을 도출하였다. 분석 결과, 시장중심적 정책이 우세한 국가임에도, 주택가격이 높고 부담가능주택이 부족한 대도시 중심으로 포용주택 제도가 활성화되고 있으며 용적률 보너스를 포함한 다양한 인센티브를 제공하며 민간의 참여를 유도하고 있었다. 또한 정책대상이 되는 중저소득층이 부담가능하도록 주택을 공급하며 최대한 장기간 저렴하게 유지되도록 의무화하고 있다. 이를 통해 확정적이지는 않지만, 사회적 혼합에 긍정적인 효과가 발견되고 특히 아이들의 교육 성취도가 높은 편이나, 유의미한 사회적 상호작용에 대해서는 여전히 그 성과가 실험중이다. 포용주택을 직접 해당부지에 건설하는 경우와 인근에 건설하는 경우로 나누어 사례분석한 결과 장단점이 모두 존재하는 것이 확인되었다. 이는 주택가격이 높고 빠르게 상승하는 대도시지역에서 중저소득층을 위한 부담가능한 주택공급 가능성의 단초를 제공한다.

  • 최근 대도시를 중심으로 주택가격의 급격한 상승에 따라 서민들의 주거안정도 크게 위협받고 있다. 본 연구는 대도시 거주자들의 주거불안정성에 주목하여 이에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하였다. 특히, 기존의 선행연구들이 주거비부담능력이 낮은 가구들의 주거불안 경험과 이에 따른 그들의 삶의 변화를 보여주는 데 주목해온 것과 달리, 본 연구에서는 거주지역의 공간적 개방성, 커뮤니티 특성 등 지역특성이 거주자들의 주거불안 경험을 완화 또는 심화시킬 수 있다는 점에 주목하여 이에 대한 영향력을 실증분석하였다. 대도시 거주자들의 주거불안정 영향요인을 분석하기 위한 자료로 2017년도 주거실태조사를 활용하여 다층로짓모형(Multi-level Logistic Model)을 통해 분석하였다. 분석 결과는 가구의 주거비 부담능력과 같은 가구특성뿐만 아니라 주택 재고, 저렴한 주택 가격, 사회적 관계망 등 지역 특성의 영향력 또한 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 지역의 공간적 포용성 증진이 주민들의 주거불안정을 완화하는 데 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 것임을 시사한다. 논의를 바탕으로 본 연구는 주거불안정을 도시정책 차원에서 주목하고, 이를 완화해나가기 위한 정책적 노력이 필요함을 제안한다.

  • BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to examine the food security status of urban poor adolescents and its association with diet quality. SUBJECTS/METHODS: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 188 adolescents aged 13-18 yrs living in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Household food insecurity and dietary intake data were collected using the Radimer/Cornell hunger and food insecurity instrument and 2-day 24-h dietary recalls, respectively. Diet quality was determined using the Malaysian Healthy Eating Index (HEI). Weight and height were measured and body mass index-for-age, as well as height-for-age z scores were calculated. RESULTS: The present study revealed that 47.9% of the adolescents experienced household food insecurity, 24.5% experienced individual food insecurity, 18.6% household food security, and 9.0% child hunger. The mean score of diet quality was 56.83 ± 10.09, with a significantly lower HEI score among food insecure adolescents (household food insecure, individual food insecure, and child hunger) than household food secure adolescents (P = 0.001). The differences between food secure and food insecure households were found to be significant for energy (P = 0.001) and nutrients including proteins (P = 0.006), carbohydrates (P = 0.005), dietary fiber (P = 0.001), folate (P < 0.001), and vitamin C (P = 0.006). The multiple linear regression showed that adolescents who experienced food insecurity (β = -0.328; P = 0.003) were found to be significantly associated with poor diet quality (F = 2.726; P < 0.01), wherein 13.3% of the variation in the diet quality was explained by the food security status. CONCLUSIONS: Experiencing food insecurity contributed to poor diet quality among urban poor adolescents. Further longitudinal studies are needed to comprehensively understand this association to improve food insecurity and diet quality among urban poor communities.

  • This study aims to find out ways of improving life satisfaction of rural elderly by investigating their work and leisure activity, two significant axis of the life in later life. For this purpose, researchers and one assistant researcher visited house, senior citizen's center and health center, in order to have interviews with senior citizen above 65, who are currently working in the field. The summary of the research findings are as follows; First, the average size of the farm land which each senior citizen works on is $9,237.92m^2$ and they mostly work for economic reason. During farming season, they work on average 8.62 hour per day. As primary reasons for why farming work is difficult, "insufficient income" was picked. In fact, the average annual income senior citizens earn from farming is about 15.4 million won. 49.1% of sample senior citizens work both on watered farm and farm, and they are engaged in farming 48.82 years on average, showing that most of their lives have been spent on farming. In spite of these difficulties, most senior citizens showed high intention to continue farming work further. Second, senior citizens turn out to spend their leisure time mostly on public leisure activities such as watching TV, hearing radio and gatherings with families, relatives. However, individual activities such as meditation, yoga, drawing and calligraphy turn out to be low because they require foundations to enjoy. Third, senior citizen in rural areas were divided into four groups by farm work and leisure activity: group separated from work and leisure activity(27.09%), group centered to leisure activity(24.42%), group centered to work(23.75%), and group integrated work and leisure activity(23.75%). Fourth, the groups were different depending on demographic characteristics. Namely, male senior citizen, higher educational level, living in elderly couple households, and satisfied with their economic level belonged to the group integrated work and leisure activity. But senior citizen aged above 65 years old and working for their livelihood belonged to the group centered to work, and most of female and senior citizen aged above 80 years old belonged to the group separated from work and leisure activity. Finally, as the result of analysis of differences in life satisfaction according to farm work and leisure activity of senior citizen in rural areas, the group integrated work and leisure activity, and group centered to leisure activity were higher in life satisfaction than the group separated from work and leisure activity, and group centered to work. The above result indicates that life satisfaction of senior citizen depends upon leisure activity rather than work.

  • The purpose of this study is to explore whether the phenomenon of both married and unmarried adults' cohabiting with their parents in Korean society is "unilaterally parasitic" on the child's side, or is "interdependent", characterized by expectation and dependence from the parent's side. As a result of this study possessing the characteristics of theoretic research, the following propensities of parent-dependent adults have been discussed. First of all, it was discovered that the ratio of adult children dependent on and cohabiting with their parents is considerable. Second, parents cohabiting with their adult children have unfavorable sociological features, such as high age, low level of education and income, and lower standards of education and income, compared to parents in normal households. Third, it was found that parent-dependent adults in Korean society maintain a relatively high rate of financial activity and stable employment-based occupation status. Fourth, it was shown that the level of satisfaction on the relationship between parent-dependent adults and their parents was discovered to be high, which is contrastive to the prediction of negative results based on some previous researches. Single adult children's age, their level of education and financial activity status, and their parents' age and level of education were deducted as variables related to the level of satisfaction of the relationship between parents and their children. It seems that the issue of married and unmarried adults' cohabiting with their parents in Korean society should be approached from various perspectives such as political, economic, socio-cultural and developmental aspects. On the basis of this fundamental awareness and several of the materials, it is pertinent that approaches to both married and unmarried adults' cohabiting with parents in Korean society should be distinguished from approaches to those in Japanese or Western society because it reflects the uniqueness of Korean society. In the phenomenon of married and unmarried adults' cohabiting with their parents in Korean society, there are several factors besides the economic factor, especially the socio-cultural factor that have the characteristics of mutual dependence between parents and their children rather than those of unilateral parasitism, in contrast with the phenomenon in Japanese or Western society. This research was aimed to contribute by establishing basic data for policy making by providing necessary information to treat the issues of instability and anxiety related to families and reflection on the matters of generations and parent-child relationships in current Korean society.

  • Objectives : This study was conducted to examine the relationships of the several socioeconomic position indicators with the mortality risk in a representative longitudinal study of South Korea. Methods : The 1998 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey was conducted on a cross-sectional probability sample of South Korean households, and it contained unique 13-digit personal identification numbers that were linked to the data on mortality from the National Statistical Office of Korea. Of 5,607 males and females, 264 died between 1999 and 2003. Cox's regression was used to estimate the relative risks (RR) and their 95% confidence intervals (CI) of mortality. Results: Socioeconomic differences in mortality were observed after adjustments were made for gender and age. Compared with those people having college or higher education, those people without any formal education had a greater mortality risk (RR=2.21, 95% CI=1.12-4.40). The mortality risk among manual workers was significantly greater than that for the non-manual workers (RR=2.73, 95% CI=1.47-5.06). A non-standard employment status was also associated with an increase in mortality: temporary or daily workers had a greater mortality risk than did the full-time workers (RR=3.01, 95% CI=1.50-6.03). The mortality risk for the low occupational class was 3.06 times greater than that of the high and middle occupational classes (95% CI=1.75-5.36). In addition, graded mortality differences according to equivalized monthly household income were found. A reduction of monthly household income by 500 thousand Korean Won (about 400 US dollars) was related with a 20% excess risk of mortality. Self-reported poor living standards were also associated with an increased risk of mortality. Those without health insurance had a 3.63 times greater risk of mortality than the insured (95% CI=1.61-8.19). Conclusions: This study showed the socioeconomic differentials in mortality in a national longitudinal study of South Korea. The existence of socioeconomic mortality inequalities requires increased social discussion on social policies in Korean society. Furthermore, the mechanisms for the socioeconomic inequalities of mortality need to be explored in future studies.
